[Bug 2099680] Re: Please document how to enable/disable autoreporting

[Benjamin Drung]

My investigation lead to https://launchpad.net/whoopsie-preferences
where https://git.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/whoopsie-
preferences/tree/src/whoopsie-preferences.c corresponds the auto-
reporting with a file /var/lib/apport/autoreport being present or not.

So enabling auto-reporting:

sudo touch /var/lib/apport/autoreport

Disabling auto-reporting:

sudo rm -f /var/lib/apport/autoreport

Title:
  Please document how to enable/disable autoreporting

Status in apport package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  We got the question: How is apport autoreporting enabled in a headless
  system?

  I found https://documentation.ubuntu.com/server/how-
  to/software/report-a-bug/ but that does not say anything about the
  autoreporting. I found a lot of very old documentation that did not
  help.

  Please document how to enable/disable autoreporting. In case this
  documentation lives outside the apport code base, the documentation in
  the apport code should point to that documentation.
